The Library of Congress believes that the majority of the works in the Gisella Selden-Goth collection are in the public domain or have no known copyright restrictions and are free to use and reuse. For example, the majority of the works date to the 19th century or earlier. The Library has also obtained permission for the use of some materials, and presents additional materials pursuant to fair use under United States copyright law. Researchers should watch for documents that may be copyrighted (for example, published in the United States less than 95 years ago, or unpublished and the author died less than 70 years ago) including those subject to international rights laws.
You are responsible for deciding whether your use of the items in this collection is legal. You will need written permission from the rightsholders to copy, distribute, or otherwise use copyrighted materials except as allowed by fair use or other statutory exemptions.
Items included here with the permission of the rights holders are indicated as such in the bibliographic record for each item.
